December 13th, 2025 - ProSeka, vivid/stasis, Just Dance

EVERYBODY FREAK THE FUCK OUT!!!!! but only after these brief random proseka scores, where i sightread AP Treasure Garden [Expert Lv.28] and make some... surprising progress on AP'ing Kaiju ni Naritai [Expert Lv.32]!!! maybe full game Easy~Expert AP isn't so impossible after all... just 2 greats left to go...

okay NOW everyone PANIC AND FREAK THE FUCK OUT!!! those of you who've either followed my past posts or actively play vivid/stasis know the DUOSTORM ASCENCIA 2025 qualifiers have been out for a while now... but they just so happen to be ending in THREE DAYS (as of this post)!!! AND I'VE GOTTEN 0 PRACTICE WITH THE SONGS!!! in fairness, i recall the last two qualifiers from my past tourney experience with vivid/stasis, but i'm completely lost on both Tau and Images, and i haven't had any time to study them because i've been cramming for finals the entire duration of the tournament!!! worse, i hadn't even alerted or signaled my teammate Bomber to start practicing himself, so we were Both absolutely cooked... yet i still had hope . i clutched out my submission in DA24, my team pulled through to 5th in SS24 despite being super inconsistent, so what's to say we couldn't pull it off a third time?

and so, the epic 2DKaps DA25 training arc began... and WOW we sucked . yeahhhh way worse than we both anticipated . bomber wanted to do a practice run straight from the get-go to gauge our skills so far, and he failed out on Synthesis. [ENCORE 16] due to having harmony gauge on... but even still i was getting way off my PB!!! so our first run was a horrible 1756.8, not even within the top... 30? 40? of the tourney at the time . nevertheless we persisted... i got an AC on Tau [ENCORE 15, MAX-9], started learning Images [FINALE 15], and we joined back up to a... somewhat mediocre run . reset the first run because we both did bad, but i pulled through on the next with an upscore to MAX-6 on Tau... a slight new PB on Images... a 2-miss on QUASAR... and eating even MORE shit on Synthesis. to get a new qualifier score of...

...pretty good, eh?? of course, not the best, but it was a good start for how washed we were and how many days we had left to go (clueless)! spent the rest of the day trying to find my skill again and doing random stuff, like finally AC'ing 3, 2, 1, Let's Go [FINALE 15, MAX-11] (chart got nerfed though so it's not as special :[), getting an S+ on APOCALYPSE CALL [ENCORE 18] and a V on DeSPAROLA [BACKSTAGE 17], sightread AC'ing Wave Punch [FINALE 14, MAX-22], aaaand i guess FC'ing Luminaria [ENCORE 13] with 25% timing windows if that counts for anything???

even with all that, as night came and the day ended, i still felt super stressed and alert by the DA25 qualifiers and if we could even qualify into the tourney at this rate... iiit wasn't looking good ngl, and i felt like we would legit miss out on it no matter what, i just couldn't shake the feeling... so i played some Just Dance at midnight to shake off the nerves!! mayhaps not the best solution (and i was slightly reprimanded by my parents once they got back), but whatever works i guess...? (also got FP (Full Perfect) on Acceptable In The 80s so TAKE THAT!!!)

March 15th, 2025 - Arcaea, Just Dance, Fortnite Festival

last day of the sale, so i had to rush to buy the songs i wanted to get (mainly incl. chuni pt.2 despite not being on sale) and then spend the rest of the morning preparing for the exam . the exam finally came and.. it went HORRIBLY i don't even wanna talk about it :[ buuut to lift my spirits a little, i played the charts i got from the sale on the way back home (mainly memory archive songs) and got some really good progress on Back to Basics [FTR-10]!!! ohyeah also a challenge score on Einherjar Joker [BYD-10+], yet a really good first try... maybe i could upscore this one too? 12.73 PTT soon?

got home but still couldn't shake the exam stress off me, so i hopped on Just Dance to get that physical activity i needed!! check out this sick 13k sightread on Toxic (JD2 Version) :3c

and finally, with the exam over and not much stress about studying, i managed to hop on Fortnite with my friends and work towards getting the song i mentioned last post... and that song in question? THROUGH THE FIRE AND FLAMES!!!! (Expert Lead 7) as i don't have a peripheral for the other modes, but the chart here is insane LMFAO, love it (even despite the stupid 32nd trill set in the middle) (oh also I Want It That Way)

March 4th, 2025 - Arcaea, DJMAX, Just Dance, Fortnite Festival

much homework to do . not a lot of time to do it . go go gadget Random Arcaea Challenge Score

anyways... yeah, today was the last day to get my DJMAX plays in before the season ended . it was also the due date for some math homework! i prioritized the latter but realized i wouldn't have enough time, so once i reached a comfortable spot... i hopped onto DJMAX and jumped into ladder match to continue my season grind and finish it off once and for all

first match was... already a bad sign . it was a 5B-only match, my worst out of the 3 modes i had selected, going up against someone that seemed to be highly proficient in it . played the first song (My Last Stand [5BSC 8*] and got destroyed INSTANTLY, at which point i feared i'd be knocked out like last time... until i was saved by a really good score on Can We Talk (Broken Dog Leg Mix) [5BSC 8*] and an accuracy clutch-up on My Wonderland [5BMX 13*] to take back the win and kick off the banger sets!!!

i was in Platinum I a few sets later, so it was time to really lock in to hopefully reached the sacred Diamond IV and secure whatever fancy art it may have next season . charts and modes were a lot more varied and tougher now, so i took every chance i could get to screenshot any good scores and results which is what you're seeing here!! that's not to say it was completely devoid of notable scores though, as i somehow fully locked in and started getting back-to-back PPs again on charts like on Mukiliteo Beach [4BSC 5*], Carrot Carrot [4BMX 13*], STALKER [4BSC 7*], The Obliterator [4BSC 7*], Nurture Fortress [4BSC 8*], and my favorite... Satisfiction [4BSC 8*]!!! and of all of this, the only one that wasn't a sightread (and admittedly the one i already had a PP on) was Carrot Carrot!!! can you believe that!!!

and it was in that last match with the Satisfiction PP that i finally clutched up and the end and got just enough Clear Pass XP to reach the beloved, beautiful, long-awaited reward... of the LICK EMOTICON!!! I'M FREEEEEEEE

and so, the ultimate rushed DJMAX grind came to a close. i got the emoticon, i learned my lesson on not finishing season passes so late (not really lol), and i had just enough time to finish my homework before the deadline... so with all that said and done (and my parents letting me know the TV would be free while they were out), i hopped onto my switch and booted up Just Dance to shake off my nerves and get some awesome new Megastars + level progression!!! Majesty was pretty good (one i only had 3 stars on before heading into this session, actually), but after trying Yameen Yasar (Extreme) for fun, i realized i could actually maybe get this for real... so after studying it for a bit and failing a few other runs, i GOT IT!!! with a solid 12,637 score at that!!! Yameen Yasar (Extreme) Megastar!!! not sure how many Extreme Megastars i have between every game, but this is most definitely the hardest one i've gotten!!! man, what a good day today was between every accomplishment and score i set...

UPDATE!!!: some scores i forgot about due to them being buried all the way in the Fortnite folder, it's a rush to get my plays in on the recently-released The Way I Are before it could rotate out of the spotlight!!! i knowwww it was late and i should've just gone to do it the next day, but i was free from both homework and djmax!!! i needed to celebrate one way or another!!! and so i did!!! played through every (non-pro) instrument on every difficulty to get the highest score i could on them, and i think i did decently! not the best on Some charts, but i took home #6 worldwide on Bass so i'm decently proud of myself :]

February 24th, 2025 - Arcaea, Just Dance

BIG DAY 2DAY FOR RHYTHM GAMERS OF ARCADE AND MOBILE PLAYERS ALIKE!!! as some of you might already know, last night (or technically the date of this post for non-north-americans) was the big livestream of the big, massive, annual, epic rhythm gaming event... King of Performai The 6th!!!! among the events were several new boss song reveals for GekiChuMai, some insane APs, ABs, and AJs across the three games, and Takenobu Mitsuyoshi saying "easy skibidi level one" on live TV in Japan (and also to a massive YouTube stream audience)...

but the most important thing to this post in particular is the reveal of a first in rhythm gaming, an insanely monumental song and chart reveal that'd rev up the international mobile + japanese arcade rhythm gaming scene and pit them against each other... of course, i'm talking about none other than CHUNITHM's KoP boss song reveal, Aether Crest: Celestial... a collaboration with Arcaea!!! the first time in KoP and oerhaps rhythm gaming history, the grand tiebreaker boss song for a rhythm game was a collaboration with another one!!! and so, to celebrate such a monumental feat, Arcaea and Chunithm held a big Cross Axis collaboration event where both games would fight each other (just like the jacket lol) to see who had the most dedicated playerbase, dedicated enough to grind out a map and fill out a global gauge for an extra-special participation reward... but being american and not having any chunithm cabs near me (let alone ones on official servers), i decided to join the Battle of ArcChuni... on the side of the Arc!!! HIKARI SWEEEEEEP

seeing as it was required by another challenge in the Challenge Server, i finally tried PRAGMATISM -RESURRECTION- [BYD-11] for the first time in ages, only to get absolutely DEMOLISHED by all the tech and confusing patterns/rhythms across the chart (and thus losing quite a lot of potential because Stupid Ugly Dumb System) . but if i wanted to support and represent my mobile rhythm gaming brothers in need, i need to Lock In and Gaming!! so i did, and i eventually got my first EX on the chart!!! but i wasn't stopping there... no, i was gonna keep going and instead get a sick new (though very slight) upscore on Tempestissimo [BYD-11]!!!! i REALLY wanted to get an EX+ on it, but the endkill and my inconsistency across the whole chart really prevented me from getting it unfortunately... maybe some day!!! need to work most on getting my PTT back if anything...

(throwing in a very miscellaneous JD score here because i don't wanna write another paragraph dedicated to it, it's basically just "what y'all know about Arcane")

February 22nd, 2025 - maimai BUDDiES PLUS, ONGEKI, Arcaea, Just Dance

last day of maimai before yet another hiatus!! it ain't much, but i got a decent amount of cool scores and rating increases thanks to new version scores and stuff :] wish i could've played more, but demand is huge/lines are long/was way too busy with a university conference before i could make it :[ (least there's hand in hand utage to make up for it www)

but on the bright side, i also got to play some ONGEKI for the first time in an even longer while!! it was pretty fun!!! We Gonna Journey is such a banger omgggg i'm gladd i got an AAA on it w

on the arcaea side: tried doing a challenge that required me to get an AA on this song, lost -0.03 PTT as a result, i hate this fucking game so much . but if arcaea don't got me, i know Just Dance My GOAT got me!!! i know i already had a sort of arm workout with maimai, but i felt like i didn't get enough... so hey!! a 12911 on Mr. Saxobeat!! potential new FP target...

January 30th, 2025 - Just Dance

THE MIDTERM IS OVER WITH!!! AND IT WENT...! ...horribly . i don't even wanna talk about it . took up so much of the time and i didn't even get to every question... but i'm free now, i have another chance in another few weeks, so let's make the most of this recovery period to pick myself back up on my feet and find my footing once again... but to give myself a break and redemption, i hopped back onto playing Just Dance !!! my subscription renewed itself without me realizing, but ah well,,, i still love this game !! just haven't had the chance to play it much at all www . mostly just explored songs that i hadn't gotten the chance to play for a while, but then i went more for scoring on songs like Hangover (BaBaBa) and Papaoutai... and after a few tries, i reclaimed my FP (Full Perfect) from JD2022 on My Way as my first and only... FP #1!!! 13,302 score, a MAX-31 point score... with hopefully more to come soon!!!

January 14th, 2025 - Arcaea, Just Dance

'tis but a singular upscore on ALTER EGO [FTR-10], raising it up to a slightly more pleasurable 994... such a hard chart tho w, def gotta raise the 11 since it's not really much harder in comparison #tbh (also got Mithra!!!)

ooh, and also: more just dance!! playing some very silly charts with my cousin, i got some more Megastars on choreos like Titi Me Pregunto (Barbecue Version) and Dragostea Din Tei, as well as some attempts to get a Megastar on Yameen Yasar (Extreme)... what a banger song and choreo...

January 13th, 2025 - Just Dance

hello, hello!!! sorry for the absence, but i'm alive (and have a new layout now -- check out my profile)!!! i haven't really done anything notable in rhythm gaming lately, so y'all haven't missed out on much, but i haven't posted because i went past 9999 photos and... didn't realize that images start back at 0001 after that . i found out now and archived my first 9999 images in another folder though, so we should be back on track now! anyways, JUST DANCE GAMING!!! been a while since i seriously grinded this game, so it's nice to be back :]

anyway, nothing much to note here aside from several megastars in an attempt to megastar every Latino (and a non-Latino) song in the game, knocking out Todo de Ti, Drop The Mambo, Bailando (Paradisio), Baby Zouk (twice), Titi Me Pregunto, and the hardest/most frustrating of them all... MAMASITA!!! tracking on this was a nightmare, but it's finally over...
